Fangraphs.com, which is best described as the baseball version of this site (actually, the other way around) posted an article today about the luckiest and unluckiest MLB teams at the all-star break.
It's very similar to my own lucky/unlucky breakdown. They're using a simpler runs for/runs against Pythagorean model while I use a logistic regression of efficiency stats. Both systems adjust for opponent strength. I think both are appropriate for the different characteristics of the two sports.
